Someone should build a statue to honor Harry Harlow.
Or, better yet, two of them: one made of terrycloth and the other made of chicken wire (but dispenses milk).

I remember reading about him for the first time when I was a wee lad. Had to be in one of those Time-Life Science series books. I seem to recall a pic of the unsocialized rhesus baby reeling in terror from other monkeys and fleeing to the fake mom monkey.
Guess it proves there's no wrong way to deceit a rhesus...

Harry Harlow did not study "love". He was a sadistic monster who TORTURED monkeys on a routine basis. Torturing infant rhesus monkeys is not a laughing matter, either.
Now that Harry Harlow is in Hell, I hope he is tied to the rack at the bottom of his "Pit of Despair" (this is what he called it) for all eternity.
